What's your favorite way to fry fish?
I typically just use an egg wash and 1/2 ap flour 1/2 fine corn meal seasoned with whatever. Fry in veg oil.
Looking for some ideas. Certainly have had some fried fish that beats mine!
I like a beer batter.
1/2 AP flour
1/2 corn starch
Salt, pepper, spices to taste.
Beer of choice.
It's a light batter that can also be used for tempura.
If you like it crunchier, roll it in panko after the batter.
Sounds good!
I like battered fish as well. Especially if I'm doing a whole fillet instead of smaller pieces.
Simply coated in pan searing flour!!
If catfish or bream maybe some YELLOW cornmeal.
Just not big into a heavy batter. I like the fish with simply a dusting.
I'm a hack....I use Zatarans most of the time and it still doesn't come out the same twice...
My fave is Mc Cormicks fish fry batter. Sub beer for the water about half the time. Fresh rock cod fish tacos just don't get any better.
Just fried up a batch of rock fish. Came out pretty good. Same old 1/2 flour, 1/2 corn meal with some "New Orleans" dollar store seasoning and a bit of S&P.
I think next time I'll try cracker meal.
A1seasoning flour and oldbay
drain the fish, roll in Zaterains Crispy Southern Fish Fry breading, and cook. Perfect fish every time.

That looks like some great eats!
You guys should give the big spring mill seasoning flour a try for fish, pork, chicken or about anything else you fry. It call A-1 seasoning flour. Made in va. Go to there web site to buy or i have seen it on ebay in 2 lb bags . Its pricey, but good stuff, makes a fine flour gravy.
we use , season Salt , Garlic powder, little Cheyenne pepper
cut prices about 1" X 2" mix with about 1/2 cup mustard and 1/2 cup beer put in gallon Zip lock bag over night or anywhere from 3 to 6 hrs , I like overnight
then bread with Zaterains
fry at 350 till golden brown.
can use for fresh water or salt water fish
DANG THAT LOOKS GOOD SAM!!!!
With some lemons and cocktail sauce I could eat that whole thing!!!Lots of horseradish.
David, I cooked a couple of gallons of hush puppies too. Not much left at the end of the event.
Seasoned flour, seasoned egg, panko, peanut oil. Yellowtail snapper this weekend, can't wait.
for bream and catfish - yellow cornmeal seasoned with salt & pepper
for speckled trout and flounder - yellow corn flour to 1/4 to 1/3 blend of cornmeal with salt & pepper
white trout or sweet trout - coat in yellow mustard and follow same for speckled trout/flounder
Fried up a ton of halibut and rockfish last night.
Used Lousiana Fish Fry,
https://store.louisianafishfry.com/products/batters-coatings.htmlMixed a bag of crispy and a bag of regular together. It was great. Just patted the fish pieces dry, tossed them in the breading, and into the fryer!
I'll definitely use it again.
Our Wall Mart actually sell that brand....
I might have to give it a try...
Thanks...
Dayam, Sam. You'd have to pull me away from those eats!
